What movie should I watch tonight?

[partyboy]

Love anything to do with space, aliens, or post-apocalyptic / end of the world type stuff. Can enjoy a good comedy. Usually find action and horror movies boring (unless the theme is one of the above things I listed) but your typical guns and car chase action movie makes me zzz

Logan's Run (1976), go back to the old days of movies, and see their version of the city of tomorrow.
Wanna get older and weirder, Metropolis (1927)

Excellent suggestions.

"Logan's Run" encapsulates a good bulk of the OP's request, too. It's an amazing movie. A bit dated, but really good sci-fi.

For any that haven't seen it that also like science-fiction:

"Forbidden Planet" (1956)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0049223/

Yes, that's Lesley Nielson.


One can consider this a "Star Trek" sort of prequel...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbidden_Planet

In the 23rd century, after more than a year's journey, the United Planets starship C-57D arrives at the distant planet Altair IV to determine the fate of the ship Bellerophon sent there 20 years before. Dr. Edward Morbius, one of the original expedition's scientists, warns the ship not to land for safety reasons, but Commander John J. Adams ignores his warning. ...

Anyone see the similarities with a standard Star Trek episode plot? :)

All this is ancient junk.
There is nothing new and interesting.
American film studios don't produce anything interesting.
Why is that? - I don't know.

Interesting sells less than "easily digestible"

I agree with you. But for some reason there are fewer and fewer good films.
Sometimes you have to scour the entire Internet to watch something interesting in the evening.

Modern instant exposure to a huge library digitally doesn't help, honestly. Takes way longer to brew 'em than drink 'em!

There's such a low barrier to entry on streaming platforms now, that you have to DIG to find things yeah.

And even then, you're fighting the algorithm the whole time because they want you to just stop waffling and pick the same thing the family 3 doors down just watched on Wednesday.

Next wave idea as I understand it is to "solve" this by giving everyone their "own" "unique" quasi-AI-powered metrics system probably per account but like ... that just leads to the Pandora radio problem: "every station becomes the same unless you thumbs down things you actually like sometimes."
